Yeah, consider, children in foster care aren't like children you give birth to in the fact of the life experiences they've had.

I know some people for sure that, had they been given the choice, would NOT have picked their biological parents in a million years, even though they grew up with them.

So, when you get older children put into established families, or even new ones, at that...the children come with issues...new parents have issues they didn't know they'd have...as another poster mentioned...children are encouraged to try to sabotage their placement in hopes of going back, etc.
